Description

This critter is about as big as a large dog and can change the texture and color of its skin to completely disappear into its environment. It's also as agile as a cat and can climb as good as any lizard. The tail has a fin-like thing on the end to help propel it in water along with its long serpentine body. Most of its exoskeleton is covered in camo-skin. There's only a few parts of its body that isn't armored.

About as intelligent as a young human, people will strap a very small camera to its head and send it off to enemy territory to survey and spy seemingly unnoticed. The only way to disrupt their camouflage is blinking a light on their skin. The skin cells can't reflect fast enough.

This particular one is more humanoid than the final creation. Cutting your finger in a genetics lab is a good way to ruin your day.

.......

That was long.. lol. I'm a sucker for metamorphosis stories.
The pic doesn't feel as complete as I'd like it to be. I may go back to it when I'm out of the "It's good enough" stage.
